Abstract

A window for an aircraft door includes an outer pane, an inner pane, and a Fresnel lens element provided in the interspace formed between the inner and outer panes. The Fresnel lens element may be a self-supporting lens element pane positioned intermediately within the interspace between the inner and outer panes, or a lens film adhesively bonded onto the surface of the inner pane facing the interspace, or a Fresnel lens configuration provided directly on the surface of the inner pane facing the interspace. The Fresnel lens element provides an expanded field of view, especially in a downward direction, when looking out through the window, to comply with safety regulations that require visual inspection of the area outside of the aircraft door and especially below the door, before opening the door.
